Fade Away

Alone in my room

With nothing to say

Nothing to feel

Just Be.

If I tried to disappear -

Would you let me?

Or get in my way?

As I sit

I analyze

Everything you'll ever say

And wonder

What you said today.

Does it matter?

Words

I write my soul on the page with my blood

So what?

One day it will wash away.

I'll be without legacy

My life over, with nothing to show for it.

No one to remember me

So I'll let myself

Fade

Away
